Whilst we may be going through turbulent times following the UK's vote to leave the EU, you don’t have to settle for uncertainty even in a volatile currency market.
With a World First forward contract you can fix an exchange rate for up to 2 years in advance, taking back the control.
How it works
We can help your business get the most out of its payments - no matter the reason for the transfer. We’re here to help reduce any hassles or worries about exchange rates and market fluctuations.
It’s easy to start making payments with World First. Once you’ve opened an account, you’ll be assigned a currency specialist who will work with you to find the right foreign exchange solution for your business.
Book a rate
Once your account is set up, you'll be assigned a dealer who will be on hand to suggest the best products and services for your business. Once we know all the details, we can quote you a rate.
Send us your money
Once your rate is booked, you'll receive a trade confirmation and depending on the product or service you've chosen, we'll let you know when and how much money to send to us by bank transfer.
We make your payment
It's as easy as that. Whether you've chosen a spot or a forward contract or built out currency options, once we've received your funds, we'll convert and send the money on the date and to the account you requested.

Fees and charges
It's simple: we do not charge a fee on any private client international payment over $10,000. For international payments under $10,000 we charge a flat fee of $10.
And we try our best to make sure all your money gets to where it needs to by covering correspondent and receiving charges where we can.
